Take A*Men and remove the chocolate note and add a dose of orange note and you got Terre D'Hermes

While wearing my sample of Terre D'Hermes for the 2nd day in a row... I realized that Terre D'Hermes smells like A*men without the chocolate note and add the orange note... that's what I get out of Terre D'Hermes... do you get the same?

I don't see any similarities personally. Take a men, take out the heavy tar opening, take out the patchouli and the creamy gourmand qualities in the dry down, add vetiver, dirty citrus notes, flint and a touch of pure earth. You have taken everything that is amen out of amen and now created terre d'hermes. But you can do this with any two fragrances that are opposites.

Patchouli. Terre feels like A*men in cooler/colder weather, when (I've noticed) the patchouli in it becomes more prominent. In summer Terre is nothing like it. In fact it's nothing like any other thing I've smelled.

All said, I'll take TdH over A*men anyday. Smooth, natural, versatile. And fills you with confidence.

While I love Terre d'Hermes, I very much dislike A*Men, so my short answer is: no way !

"I love fragrances because they provide a sheer endless variety: there is a scent for every occasion, mood or feeling. Standing before my collection in the morning matching a perfume to my needs is one of the most enjoyable things in my day"...I don't want to miss that...

Hehe, I agree. Not such a good combination.
